Right now, many dropshipping shipping methods and shipping ways are avaliable, sometimes make it difficult for dropshippers to choose from.

  • aliexpress standard shipping. For dropshipping vendors who dropship from aliexpress, this shipping method is mostly used. Shipping to Many countries in a certain time of about 2-5 weeks.
  • China Registered Air Mail. One of China EMS shipping line.

This shipping method cost is lower than ePacket, and to a certain countries that ePacket can not reach, only question is that, the shipping time can be as long as 30-55 days.

  • Commercial express shippinglike DHL, TNT, FedEx, ARMEX, UPS, etc.

The shipping time can be as short as 3-7 days, and shipping cost is quite high if using express shipping method.

  • NLPG, TRPG, BEDS, etc. These are special shipping line for some certain products categories.

Shipping time varies, depend on destinations, still can reach customers in 30 days in most occasions..

  1. How to choose from these dropshipping shipping method?
  • Considering the weight and valueof dropshipping products.

For high value dropshipping items, and shipping weight over 2KGS, we suggest using DHL or TNT express shipping method, to realize dropshipping suppliers fast shipping.

For dropshipping parcel weight within 2KGS, and destination countries ePacket can reach, then ePacket shipping is most recommended.

For dropshipping product weight within 2KGS, and destination ePacket can not reach, dropshippers can consider China Register Air Mail shipping method. Since the dropshipping shipping costs are relatively low.

  • Considering thedropshipping items

For some dropshipping niches, since the dropshipping products contain liquid, or powder, or battery inside, these products should be shipped out via special shipping line like NLPG, TRPG,BEDS, etc. To make sure the dropshipping parcels can be delivered properly and safely. Or else, the local custom may kept these parcels and do not allow their transportation for safety issues.

  1. Why is dropshipping free shipping method not recommened?

Sometimes, dropshippers can see that, dropshipping wholesalers offer free shipping method, which will use china post shipping to save shipping cost, however dropshipping china free shipping is quite slow, and no delivery info. So your clients may not receive any parcel even after 2 months. Or some customer will open dispute even if parcel are received, since no delivery info, you will not win back the dispute. That would be double loss for your business.

  1. How to make your service stand out by short dropshipping time?

Besides these regular shipping method. We flashleopard also recommend express line for many targeted individual markets. Like bellowing:
